Traveler reviews
Wesley Renes
★★★★★a year agoA great museum and a fascinating part of the overall experience! I really liked how they utilized the walkway to the church as part of the museum – it adds an extra layer of history and immersion. The museum itself is full of interesting exhibits, with a lot of thoughtful details that make each section captivating. From religious artifacts to artwork, there’s something for everyone to appreciate. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Salzburg! It’s a unique and enriching experience that you won’t want to miss.
Sara Montebrusco
★★★★★4 years agoNice museum. Worth the price, you can see many things. My favourite parts were the little terrace and the Cabinet of curiosities. But there were many other interesting and beautiful things to see, such as the Dom itself and it's organ or the state rooms.
